ABOUT ENABLING CHANGE
Enabling Change is the first ever entrepreneurship support programme specifically focusing on Persons with Disabilities.

Veera is the co-founder of the Sustainable Living Lab (SL2) - a technology driven social enterprise and Singapore’s first and only Makerspace focusing on social innovation, sustainability and technology - and is one of the most prominent figure of the Singapore Maker movement.
Trained as a mechanical engineer, he spent his formative years taking apart (and not always putting together) all kinds of stuff and starting new organisations in LAN gaming, credit card marketing, competition planning, tinkering and sports. He is listed on several biomedical device patents and has built solar cars, wind turbines, EEG headsets and agricultural drying equipment. Motivated by the wish of having a big inventor garage (as seen in the movies) in a land-strapped Singapore has led him to start the Sustainable Living Lab.
Herk is the Director of Employment and Employability at SG Enable, an agency dedicated to enabling persons with disabilities. Focusing on abilities and empowerment, Herk leads his team to enable persons with disabilities with customised training programmes and helping them to seek employment opportunities.
Prior to joining the social sector, Herk served in diverse positions in the public sector, ranging from policy to strategy, business development, communications and operations. This range of experiences has convinced him of the value in engaging the community and encouraging cross-sector partnerships to tackle complex social problems.
Herk holds a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and a Master of Engineering in Operations Research and Industrial Engineering from Cornell University. A geek at heart, Herk has a keen interest in technology and social innovation. He is excited by the possibilities offered by technology and sees technology as a great enabler especially for persons with disabilities.
